So if someone with a 48% chance winning is considered an "upset", then yes, ther were a lot of upsets. Blame the structure---I have heard some describe it as "good" or "reasonable", but I don't think it even comes close to these terms. A good structure for this event might be 50% more starting chips, double the length of each level, and start by playing best 4 of 7 in round one (followed by 5 of 9, 6 of 11, etc.).

Please remember it's an annual event, so the tournament can't run longer than one year.

Also, this is more made for T.V. than actually poker playing. should make elite 8 best 2 out of 3, and finals best 3 out of 5.
